O'Connor, D. (1957). An Introduction to the Philosophy of Education. London: Routledge, https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315531175

Education, like every other important branch of knowledge, has its underlying philosophical problems. It is these problems and the attempts to solve them which together make up the philosophy of education. This book, first published in 1957, provides a simple explanation and illustration of what philosophy can (and cannot) do for educational thinking. This title will be of interest to students of the philosophy of education.
